T all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, BENJAMIN B. SOULLY, of Lynn, in the eounty of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Necktie-Supporterswhich will, in connection With the aocompanying drawings, be hereinafter fully desoribed, and specifically defined in the appended olaims.

'Ihis invention is an improvement in that dass. or kind of neektie-supporters for which Letters Patent 0f the United States N0. 298, 792 were issued to me on the 19th day of February, A. D. 1885, and it is shown in oonneotion with the 1oop secured to me in that patent; but it is not eonfined theret0, as it is applicable to many varieties of 100ps by which the supporter is seeured in position.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a rear elevation 0f the centra1 portion of a necktiesupporter exnbodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the same; and Fig. 3 is atransverse section through Figs. 1 and 2, said several figures being enlarged, the better to show the invention.

In said views, A represents the body of the supporter, which may be formed of any suit able material, and of any desired form of out- 1ine. The secring-loop is shown as formed With the e1astic arrns b, by whieh it is seeured 0 in position. The central portion, c, as also the ends (l of the wire which composes the Serial N0.162,270.

loop, are passed through an eyelet, fwhich is oval in outli'ne, and which protects bodyA and secures the 100p in position, while the bight of the central part, c, is secured in posi- 3 5 tion by eye1et e, as shown, and as was fully described and shown in my said former patent. The ends d are firm1y c1inched upon body A.

I do not o1aim the method of passing cen- 40 ter c and ends d through the bodyA andthen seeuring the loop in position by the eyelet e, my invention consisting in the combination of an oval eyelet, f, with the other devices, as defined in the following c1aims.

I elain1 as my irivention l. In a neektie-supporterthe combination, with body Aand the seouring-loop, 0f oval eye1et f, seeured in said body, 130 serve as the opening in whieh the seeuring loop rests, substantially as speoified.

2. In a necktie-supporter, the eombination, With body Aa-nd the securing-loop, of oval eyelet f, seeured in said body, to serve as the opening in whieh the 1oop is inserted, and eyelet e, arranged to secure the central portion of the 100p to the body, substantially as specified.
